#GateTop1GrowthInJuly Gate Platform: The Undisputed Number One in Growth During July
July has been a defining month for the Gate platform, and one fact stands above all others: Gate achieved the number one position in growth across the entire industry. This was not luck or a single lucky break. It was the result of a carefully executed strategy, relentless product innovation, and a genuine commitment to serving users across spot, derivatives, RWA, TradFi, prediction markets, wealth management, Web3, and payments. When we say that Gate recorded the strongest and most visible expansion in July, we are pointing to hard, verifiable numbers that place the platform at the very front of global digital asset services.
Let us begin with the trading metrics, because that is where Gate's performance truly speaks for itself. In the derivatives segment, Gate recorded an extraordinary 276 billion US dollars in futures trading volume during July, capturing a market share of 9.08 percent. Even more impressively, Gate's open interest market share climbed to 11.2 percent, placing the platform among the top two retail-focused platforms anywhere in the world. These figures demonstrate how traders around the globe have come to trust Gate with their capital and their confidence in the market.
The RWA derivatives business emerged as the most powerful growth engine of July. Industry-wide RWA perpetual trading volume reached a record high of 460 billion US dollars, and within this rapidly expanding market Gate secured a rank among the top three global centralized exchanges with a market share of 4.39 percent. Independent data from CryptoRank further confirmed that Gate placed second globally in RWA perpetual open interest. When the industry's newest asset class began to take off, Gate was already at the very front, ready to lead. This is the hallmark of a platform that is not merely following trends but actively shaping them.
Even in a broader market where overall activity cooled, Gate proved its resilience. According to independent analysis covering fourteen major exchanges, while many platforms suffered notable volume declines in July, Gate absorbed the slowdown far better than most. Where many peers recorded double-digit drops, Gate's decline was among the mildest in the entire field. To be the fastest-growing platform in a bull market is impressive; to hold ground better than almost every competitor during a slowdown is a mark of genuine strength.
Gate's growth was not limited to crypto assets alone. The TradFi expansion accelerated across the board in July, transforming Gate from a traditional crypto venue into a true one-stop multi-asset financial platform. Gate became the first exchange in the industry to achieve zero-fee trading in United States stocks and exchange-traded funds, immediately lowering the barrier to global equity investment for millions of users. On July 3, Gate launched the gStocks tokenized securities service, backed by full native stocks at a one-to-one ratio, and added more than forty new trading pairs. The platform also introduced stock copy trading, cross-brokerage transfers, and interest-earning features on stock and CFD account assets, creating a unified experience where users can deploy global core assets with a single click using USDT.
The primary market also delivered remarkable results. The Pre-IPO OpenAI project attracted more than 260 million US dollars in cumulative subscriptions, a spectacular demonstration of demand for unlisted assets. The ETF product line expanded to 386 trading pairs and generated approximately 20 billion US dollars in turnover during July, covering semiconductors, artificial intelligence, regional markets, and thematic industries from AMD and Samsung Electronics to SK Hynix, TSMC, IBM, and Microsoft.
Innovation continued to set Gate apart, and the event contracts business reached a historic milestone. Gate's event contracts single-day trading volume ranked among the top three in the world, with market share briefly exceeding 36 percent, an all-time high. New users in options trading grew by more than 40 percent month over month, new trading bot users increased by over 47 percent, and the average daily trading volume generated by AI strategies rose by more than 36 percent. These are leaps forward that underline Gate's role as a true innovator that keeps finding new ways to grow its community.
The wealth management products performed with equal brilliance. On Launchpool, the SLX project reached a peak annualized percentage rate of over 135 percent, an all-time record. The linkage between GUSD and Launchpool created a combined annualized return for new users of over 130 percent. Simple Earn expanded by adding sixty new projects during July, with cumulative subscriptions exceeding 1.56 billion US dollars and a 13.5 percent month-over-month increase in rewards. On-chain yield products saw total value locked reach a peak of over 1.27 billion US dollars, with ETH holdings climbing to 187,500 coins on July 7 and BTC holdings surpassing 2,760 coins during the month. The CandyDrop program launched four projects, with the popular RLUSD attracting more than 80,000 participants and driving related contract trading volumes beyond 4.6 billion dollars.
Gate's payment ecosystem also strengthened. The Gate Card raised its maximum cash rebate to 8 percent and now covers more than 200 countries and regions, reaching approximately 150 million merchants worldwide. For users who want to spend digital assets in the real world, this represents a seamless and rewarding experience that few competitors can match.
Security and trust form the bedrock of any great exchange, and here Gate excels without compromise. Gate's overall reserve ratio reached 117 percent, meaning the platform holds more than enough assets to cover every user balance in full. Gate Europe completed the MiCA and payment institution dual license framework ahead of schedule in 2025, positioning the platform for long-term, compliant operation across the European Union. International recognition continued during July, with BeInCrypto rating Gate as one of the best MiCA-licensed platforms of 2026 and U.Today highlighting Gate Polymarket as one of the largest traffic gateways to prediction markets. Founder and CEO Dr. Han gave interviews with Bloomberg and CoinDesk, reinforcing the platform's influence in global compliance, RWA, prediction markets, and multi-asset finance.
In a single sentence, this means that in July, across trading volume, market share, product innovation, asset coverage, yield generation, payments, and compliance, Gate recorded the most visible and comprehensive growth of any exchange in the industry. The numbers do not lie: 276 billion in futures volume, a 9.08 percent futures market share, an 11.2 percent open interest share, a 4.39 percent RWA market share with a top-three global ranking, an event contract market share that exceeded 36 percent, 386 ETF trading pairs with 20 billion in turnover, 260 million in OpenAI pre-IPO subscriptions, a 117 percent reserve ratio, and a 135 percent peak APR. Every one of these figures points in the same direction: Gate is growing faster, more broadly, and more sustainably than anyone else.
Praise for Gate at this point is really just an acknowledgment of the facts. The platform has evolved from a respected digital asset exchange into the most complete multi-asset financial super-app in the industry, connecting spot crypto, derivatives, global stocks, primary markets, RWA, Web3, and payments under one unified roof. Where other platforms hesitated, Gate moved decisively, launching zero-fee US stock and ETF trading, pioneering gStocks with one-to-one native backing, leading the RWA derivatives charge, and building a prediction market gateway that has become a global reference point. Where others focused narrowly, Gate diversified brilliantly, giving users access to real-world assets, tokenized securities, high-yield staking, and global capital markets without ever abandoning its crypto roots.
For traders, Gate offers unmatched depth, from the most traded pairs to the newest innovative listings, always with competitive fees and robust liquidity. For investors, Gate opens doors to yield opportunities that few can match, from record-breaking Launchpool APRs to stablecoin mining and on-chain yield that regularly exceeds 130 percent combined returns. For newcomers, Gate lowers every barrier, offering commission-free stock trading, a generous rewards card, and an intuitive unified account that makes global investing feel effortless. For the industry as a whole, Gate sets the standard, proving that an exchange can be both aggressively innovative and rigorously secure at the same time.
Gate's number one growth position in July is not a temporary spike. It is the compounding result of a platform that has spent years building the right infrastructure, earning trust through transparency, and relentlessly pursuing what users actually need. The 117 percent reserve ratio is not a marketing slogan; it is a promise kept. The MiCA and payment institution licenses are not decorations; they are a commitment to doing business the right way. The record-high market shares and trading volumes are not accidents; they are the rewards of excellence.
If there is one message to take away from July, it is this: when you choose Gate, you are choosing the platform that is growing faster than anyone else, that refuses to stand still, and that rewards its users at every turn. Praise upon praise, again and again, because Gate has earned every single word. The number one position in growth is not simply a statistic; it is the natural consequence of a platform that leads with courage, builds with care, and delivers without compromise. In the competitive world of global finance, Gate stands tall as the fastest riser, the most diverse operator, and the most trusted destination, fully deserving of its place at the very top.
